simple1 Posted October 22, 2015 Share Posted October 22, 2015 Well done Russia. Please keep up your good work! America and NATO have proved to be absolutely useless and impotent. A complete failure. Where to you get your info to make such a claim? As of July this year it is claimed approx 15,000 Daesh people have been killed by US led coalition air strikes in Syria and Iraq. http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/world/2015/07/29/air-campaign-kills-15000-isis-militants-pentagon-iraq-syria/30750327/ We will have to wait and see if the Russian air strikes will make a real difference to bring together the various parties to the negotiation table, reassertion of viable government control of lost territory and eventual cessation of hostilities in Syria & Iraq.
